MauiTime Best of Maui 2010: Best Smoothie on Maui: Jamba Juice

Jamba Juice
Were it not for Jamba Juice, I might be dead. Or at least missing a finger. Seriously. In the throes of chemo (with a nasty case of MRSA, aiming to rid me of my right index), a power-size anything—plus a free immunity boost—was all the food I could stand to stomach. If it stuck around long enough, it was likely my sole sustenance for days on end. Based on the votes, it would seem Jamba Juice has saved many MauiTime readers’ lives, too. Though it may not be the garden-fresh, roadside variety, there’s something to be said about Jamba’s consistency/cost/convenience. With cancer gone and my infection healed, I have renewed love for all things—one being fingers…the better to grip my power-size cup! 247 Piikea Ave., Kihei, 891-8874; 170 Papalaua St., Lahaina, 661-1054, jambahawaii.com/maui.asp @anuheayagiRunner-Up: Joy’s Place, Kihei
